The Lehigh University ADVANCE IT project focuses on institutional transformation at a medium-sized private research university with interdisciplinary collaboration at its core. It is expected that the focus on interdisciplinarity, highly characteristic of institutions of this size, will serve to provide a means for implementing evaluation, mentoring and networking policies and programs. Intellectual Merit. The LU ADVANCE IT project is novel in that it links ADVANCE activities with interdisciplinary collaboration, a widely used practice at this institution. Thus this project will answer important questions including the role of promotion criteria and procedures when interdisciplinarity is emphasized. The LU ADVANCE program is firmly rooted in the social science literature, which contributes to understanding how culture, policy and practice are interrelated. Broader Impact. The Lehigh University ADVANCE IT project will focus on regional workshops and networking opportunities. As such, this project has the potential to impact institutions beyond the funded campus. It is expected that dissemination of project findings will occur broadly through traditional means. Also, as a result of regional networks, it is expected that this ADVANCE project will serve as a model for other institutions of similar type and size.

利哈伊大学ADVANCE IT项目侧重于一所中型私立研究型大学的制度转型，其核心是跨学科合作。预计这种规模的机构高度重视跨学科，将为实施评估、指导和网络政策和计划提供一种手段。知识价值。LU ADVANCE IT项目是新颖的，因为它将ADVANCE活动与跨学科协作联系起来，这是该机构广泛使用的实践。因此，这个项目将回答一些重要的问题，包括在强调跨学科时晋升标准和程序的作用。LU ADVANCE项目牢牢扎根于社会科学文献，这有助于理解文化、政策和实践是如何相互关联的。更广泛的影响。利哈伊大学ADVANCE IT项目将侧重于区域研讨会和网络机会。因此，这个项目有可能影响到资助校园以外的机构。预期将通过传统手段广泛传播项目调查结果。此外，由于建立了区域网络，预计这个促进发展项目将成为其他类似类型和规模的机构的典范。
